About Shahruh ibn Bozkurt

Shahruh Mehmed Beg (died 1510) was the Dulkadirid sanjak-bey of Kırşehir from 1500 until his death. He was the son of Ala al-Dawla Bozkurt, Beg of Dulkadir, who ruled from 1480 to 1515.

Amid an attempt to overthrow Bozkurt, Shahruh's uncle Shah Budak blinded him in Kırşehir. Shahruh died in the spring of 1510 fighting the forces of Mohammad Khan Ustajlu, a Safavid commander, near Diyarbekir.

Family Following their father's death, Mehmed and Ali were appointed to several military positions by the Safavids. Their brother Malik Arslan was killed by Ali, who was their cousin and the ruler of Dulkadir at the time, at the Battle of Marj Dabiq on 24 August 1516.
